Alternative selections are offered each shabbat: a shorter reading (around twenty verses) and a longer one (around thirty verses). The readings are a guide and congregations may choose to read more or less from within that part of the parashah. On certain special shabbatot, a special second (or exceptionally, third) scroll reading is read in addition to the week’s portion. Haftarah readings are chosen to parallel key elements in the section of the Torah being read and therefore vary from one year in the triennial cycle to the next. Some of the suggested haftarot are from taken from k’tuvim (Writings) rather than n’vi’ivm (Prophets). When this is the case the appropriate, adapted blessings can be found on page 245 of the MRJ siddur, Seder Ha-t’fillot. This calendar follows the Biblical definition of the length of festivals.

From the early pilgrims to the millions of our brothers and sisters who have been spared from an onslaught of missiles targeted at them - we are so thankful.

  • The Sacred Sulam Bridgingheaven and Earth
    Parshat Vayetzei No 1651: 10 KIslev 5777 (10 December 2016) CLICK HERE TO DONATE TO THE RZA The Sacre d Sullam BriidgiingHe ave n and Earth Rabbii Jonathan Morgenstern Rabbii Of Young Israell of Scarsdalle, Scarsdalle, NY Earlyon in my own religious development, I gave a lot of thought to the idea of theideal religious life. As we see in the vision of Jacob's Ladder at thebeginning of Parashat VaYeitzi, is it a life devoted solely to Heaven, or is therea way to bridgeHeaven and Earth? There is no doubt that in contemplating Avodat Hashem,how best to serve God, the Chareidi “Torah only” approach has greatallure. To spend all day studying God’s word, through Torah learning,connecting to God, through Tefillah, and communing with God on Shabbat andHolidays, through a sweet mix of Torah, Tefillah and Zemirot can be intoxicating. This lifestyle had great appeal to me at an important crossroads in mylife. But as I continued to contemplate my path forward, I thought a lotabout my past as well. I come from generations and generations ofChassidic Rabbis. My grandfather sat at his father’s Tisch, as the son ofthe Rebbe, in Wengrow. Yet, through the hand of God, which saved my grandfather,sending him to Scotland, then England and, finally, settling in Chicago – wewere no longer Chassidic – we were Modern and Orthodox and that is how I was raised. In some cosmic way, I felt (and continue to feel) that it was God’s will that Iwas raised in the way that I was here and I wasn’t meant to transport myselfback to the way it was in Europe.
